Another is if you have subjects (either by war, by voluntary requests for protection, or through primitives enlightening) and you want to assimilate them, which corporations can't do (no clear reason why not - real-world corps swallow up their subsidiaries all the time and sometimes don't even bother continuing to use the brand name - but that's Paradox for you). There also is a new synergy with the Nemesis mechanics, because the extra envoys you get from the trade-diplomacy setup are more useful than ever. One reason you might do this is if you want to use Liberation Wars, without just creating a bunch of competing corps that you can't put branches on. The real power of megacorps is not the conquest and destruction of other empires, but the economy and diplomacy.
I've found that they're pretty terrible at military, understandably, but if you enjoy the diplomatic side of the game then they're a very viable option. If you really want to burn influence, you can even swap twice (most likely out and then back in). In some of my better Megacorp runs, I'm getting +500 energy within the first fifty years by spamming branch offices and pumping up trade value. Branch office buildings weren't as useful, either, and there was no Trade Federation. In the days before bureaucrats, that increased penalty from sprawling over cap was actually a very meaningful downside that was hard to avoid. other players in the online chat available at htttp://Just login. The reduced Star Base cost is useful early on, allowing you to push for rapid expansion if the map offers favorable conditions for it. The reduced claim cost is now replaced by extra pop growth, which is great news for an empire that doesnt care about waging wars. In fact, pre-Federations, swapping out of corporate to something else was pretty much the standard way for a corp empire to progress. Xenophobe has gotten even better for Inward Perfectionists in Megacorp. You can start a Trade Federation as a corp and then swap out of corp without losing the Trade Fed, too (or just take the Merchant Guilds civic to keep the option open). However, most of their civics are weak - if I'm not Spiritualist (ha) it can be hard to find a third corp civic worth taking - and if there are too many other corps, gestalts, and genocidals around then branch offices can be things better applied to your own planets, rather than trying to make your own. Corps have a very strong early game (extra starting pops, extra starting income, extra admin cap that means your would-be Bureaucrats can go do something useful with their lives for longer before it hurts). Honestly, though, I think there are more reasons to reform out of corp than into it. in Newport, construction of the building is expected to be complete by the end of 2022 with MegaCorp occupying their new space in the first quarter of 2023. You'll have to re-pick your civics but it all happens in the same 250 influence expenditure.
